Canada To England Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDEF GHIGHIGreat names of thy great captains gone before | A |
Beat with our blood who have that blood of thee | B |
Raleigh and Grenville Wolfe and all the free | B |
Fine souls who dared to front a world in war | A |
Such only may outreach the envious years | C |
Where feebler crowns and fainter stars remove | D |
Nurtured in one remembrance and one love | E |
Too high for passion and too stern for tears | F |
- | |
O little isle our fathers held for home | G |
Not not alone thy standards and thy hosts | H |
Lead where thy sons shall follow Mother Land | I |
Quick as the north wind ardent as the foam | G |
Behold behold the invulnerable ghosts | H |
Of all past greatnesses about thee stand | I |
